Day Treks in the Annapurna Range
Experiencing the Himalayas in Nepal doesn’t mean that you have to go on overnight treks. You can base yourself in or near Pokhara and we can arrange guided day hikes in the foothills to suit different fitness levels, always with fantastic views.
Ideal if you have limited time, don’t fancy staying in mountain lodges or simply don’t want to spend every day walking! You can begin tour treks by taking a short road journey out of the town itself, alternatively if staying outside of town at properties like Tiger Mountain Lodge or Pavilions The Farm, you can begin tour trek directly from the hotel.
Tiger Mountain offers a variety of treks catering to different interests and fitness levels. For an introduction, short walks through local villages and forests provide glimpses into traditional agriculture and rich birdlife, with guides available for bird-watching tours. For more strenuous options, full-day treks like the Gurung Village Walk and Khahare/Naudanda Walk offer cultural insights and stunning views of the Himalayas. The Pokhara Valley Rim and Thulakot & Ramchekot treks explore historical sites and offer panoramic valley views. For gentler options, the Bijaypur River and Shanti Stupa walks provide scenic, relaxed routes.

Walking & Wellness in the Himalayas
This trip through Nepal is all about striking the right balance: breathing in the fresh mountain air, tapping into the country’s spiritual side, and enjoying good food and good company along the way. The Himalayas is the perfect place for memorable yoga sessions, wonderful walks, and moments of pure relaxation, but it’s not all about wellness. There’s plenty of time to delve into cultural intricacies and go on adventures – paragliding, anyone? – as well as sip wine at supper.
